  • Patients with prior chemotherapy or therapy with systemic anti-tumour therapy (e.g. monoclonal antibody therapy).
  • Known hypersensitivity to Tarceva or any of its recipients.

About this study

Official title: A Single Arm, One Center, Phase Ⅱ Study of Erlotinib as Neoadjuvent Treatment in Patients With Endobronchial Ultrasound Confirmed Stage ⅢA N2 NSCLC With EGFR Mutation in Exon 19 or 21

This is a single arm, one center, phaseⅡ study evaluating efficacy and safety of erlotinib as neoadjuvent treatment in patients with EBUS confirmed stage ⅢA N2 NSCLC with activating EGFR mutation in exon 19 or 21.

Read the detailed description

Screening phase:

Patients clinically diagnosed as stage ⅢA N2 lung caner by CT technique will be pathologically proven as NSCLC with N2 by EBUS. The pathology specimen will be detected EGFR mutation by DNA sequencing. The patients with EGFR mutation in exon 19 or 21 will be enrolled in this study.

Neoadjuvant treatment phase:

Patient will receive erlotinib 150mg/day. Treatment will be scheduled to continue for a total of 8 weeks or disease progression or unacceptable toxicities.

Surgery treatment phase:

Tumor response will be evaluated with CT scan after 8 weeks of induction treatment. The patients with responsive disease considered to be technique resectable will undergo resection.

Post-surgery phase:

It is the discretion of the investigator whether the patient is a candidate for post-operative treatment which is considered to be in the best interest of the patients. It is recommended that patients with positive margins or residual tumor after surgery should receive radiation therapy. Patients after surgery will receive long-term follow-up including chest CT scan every 3 months for up to 2 years.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. radical resection rate

    To evaluate radical resection rate of Tarceva as neoadjuvant treatment in patient with EBUS confirmed stage ⅢA N2 NSCLC with EGFR mutation in exon 19 or 21.

    Measured: operation after effective neoadjuvant treatment of tarceva for 56 days

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Pathological Complete Remission

    To evaluate Pathological Complete Remission (pCR) rate of Tarceva as neoadjuvant treatment in patient with EBUS confirmed stage ⅢA N2 NSCLC with EGFR mutation in exon 19 or 21.

    Measured: operation after effective neoadjuvant treatment of tarceva for 56 days

  2. Objective Response Rate

    To evaluate Objective Response Rate (ORR) of Tarceva as neoadjuvant treatment in patient with EBUS confirmed stage ⅢA N2 NSCLC with EGFR mutation in exon 19 or 21.

    Measured: Objective Response Rate measured by RECIST criteria in ITT population treated by erlotinib

  3. disease free survival

    To evaluate disease free survival(DFS) of Tarceva as neoadjuvant treatment in patient with EBUS confirmed stage ⅢA N2 NSCLC with EGFR mutation in exon 19 or 21.

    Measured: From surgery to disease relapse or death

  4. overall survival

    To evaluate overall survival(OS) of Tarceva as neoadjuvant treatment in patient with EBUS confirmed stage ⅢA N2 NSCLC with EGFR mutation in exon 19 or 21.

    Measured: From study treatment to death due to any cause

  5. quality of life

    To evaluate quality of life(QOL) of Tarceva as neoadjuvant treatment in patient with EBUS confirmed stage ⅢA N2 NSCLC with EGFR mutation in exon 19 or 21.

    Measured: During study treatment period

  6. safety profile

    To evaluate the safety profile using NCI CTC AE(version 4.0)

    Measured: For all the patient accepted study treatment

  7. explorative biomarkers

    To evalutate the relationship between biomarker and Tarceva neoadjuvent treatment efficacy (TBD).

    Measured: During study conduction period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing erlotinib in people with Non Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Baohui Han at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Sep 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

radical resection rate (time frame: operation after effective neoadjuvant treatment of tarceva for 56 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01217619, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Sep 2017.
